Participant Feedback

“The program is characterized by its high level of freedom. If there’s a certain interest or motivation that you have, you will be given the opportunity to learn and pursue that without any boundaries set by the program. This means that a clear purpose is demanded. The program is a rich opportunity to make valuable connections (I traded business cards with around sixty employees at the largest Korean electronics manufacturer). During the program, there’s always an expert nearby that can help you with any questions you have. Numerous people from around the globe with high ambitions gather in this environment, and it was a truly stimulating experience for me.”
